I tried Eternaut last night. It’s dubbed, which is fine, but the dialog writing is just awful. Maybe it’s better in the native language, but the English dialog is bad. Didn’t get through one episode. I might try again with English subtitles, I noticed that one set doesn’t follow the spoken text, maybe that’s better written, and I can just watch in the native language with English subtitles. I don’t have much hope for it.
Utopia didn’t work for me, either, but maybe I’ll try it again in a couple of months, it might just be me right now.
Welcome to Flatch is meh-ish. I’m mostly watching because of Aya Cash, but it’s fun sometimes.
I finished You’re the Worst and rewatching Californication, I’ll miss them.
Still loving Legion.
Looks like it’s time to watch Fallout S02, which I’ve been saving for just such a lull.
I just purchased all the seasons of X-Files last night, so that’s what I’ll be starting to watch ASAP.
I don’t think I’ve ever done a full watch through, but I used to watch it a lot when it was on air.
New season of Silo has been really good thus far. I was a little bored last season, but really digging these first 2 episodes.
Also just started Widow’s Bay. We’re 2 episodes in, but the wife is still traumatized from us watching Obsession the other day, and has been working the overnight shift alone, so she’s demanded a pause on scary things. I think it’s more funny than scary.
I’ve been thinking about checking out Star City, but the Russians kinda made me mad a lot in For All Mankind so I’m not sure I want to watch a show about them.
Re Silo
I’ve only watched the first episode of season 3 so far, and was also bored of the second season and really disliked the first episode of the third season.
I don’t mind a show taking their time, but it really feels like we’re stretching the story out.
I plan to stick with it, and I hope the second episode picks up the pace a little bit.
I was pretty frustrated with what they did with Juliette at first, but think of it as all the boring setup for episode 2. Episode 2 I felt was really awesome, especially in the flashback stuff and now I’m invested again.
Six Feet Under, season 4. Spoilers for a 20 year old show ahead. Me and my girlfriend were mightily confused as to sex scenes with Brenda. Sometimes it appears that she’s been having sex for 3 episodes straight and it might have even been the same act. Thankfully other plot lines stopped being so miserable and the show is actually funny again sometimes.
[edit] Oh god, David getting kidnapped by a hitchhiker episode is some kind of awfully written and acted nightmare fuel for LA housewives.
Up next: Widows’s Bay, Silo S3, Ludwig
Watching:
Nowhere Man (1995)Nowhere Man is the story of photojournalist Thomas Veil, who discovers that his life has been abruptly “erased”: his friends claim not to know him, his wife claims not to recognize him and is living with another man. His ATM cards and credit cards no longer work. His best friend turns up dead. His private studio is now owned by someone else. … In the course of a single evening, every trace of Tom’s identity is gone.
Recommending:
Travelers (2016)In a post-apocalyptic future, thousands of special operatives are tasked with preventing the collapse of society. These operatives, known as “travelers”, have their consciousnesses sent back in time and transferred into the “host” body of present-day individuals who are about to die, minimizing unexpected impact on the future.
I love Travelers!
Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed - This show is so good! Mystery, comedy, thriller. It checks a lot of boxes for me. I hope a lot of people are watching it, because I really want it to be renewed. Also, the people doing the soundtrack are nailing it!
Sugar - The second season hasn’t been quite as good as the first, but the latest episode (4) was very solid! Hoping it’s a sign of things to come.
Silo - So far season three kinda feels a step backwards in a sense. In the first two seasons the viewer was in the dark with Juliette Nichols, but now she is in the dark, and we are not (at least not as much). That said I’m still really enjoying this season.
Currently watching House Of The Dragon, Rick and Morty, and Interview With The Vampire.
I highly recommend the last one. It’s definitely geared towards a niche audience, but AMC’s Interview With The Vampire is definitely a hidden gem with amazing casting/acting, production value, and writing. The acting in particular is some of the best I’ve seen, and among the entire cast no less.
Sando - I love me an Aussie comedy. Fun show wish it had more than 1 season
The Other One - really funny British comedy. Really fantastic cast and great writing
Happily Married AKA This Is How I Love You AKA C’est comme ça que je t’aime - Gotta love a ‘I support women’s wrongs’ show, really funny but the second season ended in a cliffhanger and the third season hasn’t been export yet
The Vampire Lestat (the show previously known as Interview with the Vampire) - watched the first 3 episodes, it’s magnificentFROM
I’m listening to Fraiser. I’m surprised by this one there’s calls on this one that will give high pressure to reactionnaries
I’ve been watching Mary Hartman Mary Hartman. The humor is very Lynchian. Reminds me of his failed sitcom “On The Air”.
I’m about half-way through Legion, and enjoying it. Recommended.
Still watching Solar Opposites.
I’m down to one episode of Californication, and three episodes of You’re the Worst, so I’m looking for replacements.
I started Welcome to Flatch, because of Aya Cash, not sure about it yet.
I’ll be starting Eternaut and/or Utopia and/or Lazarus Project. I might be starting season two of Fallout, I’ve been saving it.
I’m on my third rewatch of Lexx, but I only watch occasionally, not one episode per night, like the other shows.
Someone here mentioned The Leftovers, I thought I’d try it, but it turns out I already watched it and forgot about it, so I think I won’t be rewatching it.
I’ll probably try Devs again, but I don’t have much hope for it.
